During events commemorating Greek Independence Day in Kalamata, Greece's Foreign Minister, George Katrougalos stated that "the message of the 1821 revolution is timeless and shows that when Greeks are united, they can achieve the impossible, even when striving against overwhelming odds."
He added that the struggle for the nation's rights is now continuing under much better conditions. "After the memorandums we have fully regained our national sovereignty and are not only a stable democracy but exporters of stability," he continued.
Greece's diplomatic prestige, along with the alliances the country was forming, was capable of "neutralising any show of force from any revisionary power and to impose international law as the only framework for our bilateral and multilateral relations," Katrougalos said.
